Is Series 2 Bash like the Wham-Shell of Giants? [CLOSED]

Cause I seriously can't find that guy anywhere for good price anymore and he's the last one I need to complete my collection for Giants. Were any of you lucky enough to find the rock dragon for a decent price?

No matter the look, Spyro is always cool in my book.

I'd say S2 Drobot is closer to the Wham-Shell of Giants. One of the last ones released and ended up a little uneasy to find in places.

S2 Bash is probably closer to Boomer. Not exactly like him, but closer. Released very early (like 1st or 2nd wave) and was readilly available then. As later waves came out, Bash became less and less abundant.

S2 Zook and S2 Ignitor seem rather scarce as well as they were really only around during the first 2 waves. Out of Giants, people usually seem to be missing one of those 4 to complete their collections.

Luckily, I was able to find one in retail earlier this summer.

Once in my dreams, I rose and soared. No matter how I'm knocked around or beaten down, I will stand up restored.

I've seen S2 Ignitor at my retailers a few times. But I wish these characters wouldn't just suddenly stop appearing like that and when they do appear it's a rarity.

Series 2 Drobot is worse for finding than Wham-Shell!

He wasn't even released in Europe!

*sigh* You've named most of the ones I still need for the Giants collection! I luckily have Legendary Ignitor, of which my TRU has a number of the triple packs available. Zook, Bash and Series 2 Drobot are on my short list though. I have Lightcore Drobot, only to learn the LCs do not get the Wow - pows smilie. I'd add Hot Dog onto the list of harder to finds as well, but lucked out on the Battle pack with him in it a couple of weeks ago.

Yes, what WreckingbalB said about S2 Drobot is sadly true, I've never seen one, let stand that he was released around our place. It's like someone hijacked thier transport and stole all the S2 Drobot's that were going to the EU. He sold then all on eBay and the otther way we can get him is either the blackmarket or we have to dress ourself as Stealth Elf and have to steal it all by ourselves in Amerika...

That is how I feel about it, but in reality he is litterly never released here. Acti should blame thenselves and feel the shame, besides, they missed a whole bucked of money....

S2 Bash and S2 Drobot and a few S2 Zook / Chill / Ignitor 3 pack plus a few singles lives at my local skylander shoppe .

If any of you uber collectors are planning a holiday any time soon might i recommend Windhoek Namibia ?

I found my S2 Bash, S2 Flameslinger and Voodood at Walmart when I first started collecting. I found S2 Ignitor and S2 Zook at walmart towards the end of Giants.

I got S2 zook and ignitor in a triple pack with chill. I see quite a lot of S2 Drobots at my TRU. I have never seen a S2 Bash though.
I think that S2 Double Trouble and S2 Flameslinger are also quite rare.

eBay. eBay. eBay. Never ending supply of these things...they are not rare. Maybe from a retail standpoint...but they calculate how much space to give this stuff...and there's no reason to stock stuff that's past its prime. Hence the reason why Acti should go mail order retail after the game's past its cycle. It kills the "chase", but if it's for a game no one stocks...why not if it keeps a steady stream of revenue for them? It must be hard for them since they are primarily a game company, not a toy company. But if they can get additional toys / lines for this stuff...this might be financially feasible for them.

Until then...eBay. eBay. eBay.

RIP GhostRoaster. He's reanimated as TakeYourLemons but occasionally is resurrected from the beyond when needed.

I haven't seen him in a few months. It'd odd how they'll have some characters sometimes disappear after a certain amount of time (Non variants that is)

Hey is there anything you want me to bring for the rest of the week and if so it’s so cool that you can do something and just do it like that

I am sad, because Bash is one of the 2 characters I need before I have all 32 characters from SSA.

I actually found a s2 bash and s2 sonic boom at a Fred Meyer like in May or something, and back then he wasn't rare, or at least I don't think he was. I got both of those guys for a total of 20.00 USD. The only base character from Giants I still need is lightcore pop fizz... Also some variants.

My local Walmart gets in older figures a lot, for instance they had a SSA wham shell the other day but someone else had him in hand while looking up prices on ebay (I hate that but can understand it)
But like Ghost said just troll ebay you'll get one for close to retail eventually.

Have an extra boomer and punch pop fizz that are opened and a darklight crypt that is still sealed for trade.

If anybody has seen a Series 2 Bash in the Philadelphia, PA or Trenton, NJ area, please let me know. He's the only one I need to complete my Giants set. I've looked on Ebay and I'm not paying that much for him.

All i am saying is you probably already have one or two super rare / special skylanders that other people would love to own . Dont forget about them . smilie

I'm not so sure about that. I've seen pretty much every other Giant's character at a TRU, Walmart, Target, Best Buy or Gamestop, just not this one. The idea is completing the set, not just getting this one character.
